JODI TIFFANY AGREES DUAL REG TERMS WITH AVENUE AND STEETON!
The Club can today confirm that BPA Academy breakthrough Jodi Tiffany has agreed terms on a dual registration deal, allowing him to play for both Bradford (Park Avenue) and Steeton AFC.
Tiffany started out with Bradford (Park Avenue) Junior’s, coming up through the ranks of the Academy and joining the Scholars at u19s level aged just 16.
He established himself as a regular with the u19s squad, playing in the National Alliance League and doing enough to earn himself a place in the West Riding County Cup, playing for the First Team against Brighouse. They would play out a 1-1 draw, losing out on penalties
Jodi also went out on loan last season, playing at NCEL Premier League side Frickley Athletic.
Tiffany also appeared for the First Team earlier this season against Tadcaster Albion, playing out a 2-5 loss.
The dual registration deal will see Tiffany play under Roy Mason at the Chevrons, and he is also available for selection this Saturday, when Avenue travel to Gainsborough.

R.I.P Sidney (Sid) Blackhall (1945-2023).
Sid came to Park Avenue as a sixteen-year-old in 1961 after being recommended to Bradford player-manager Jimmy Scoular by the father of Avenue goalkeeper Ronnie Routledge.
The Ashington-born centre forward was taken onto the ground staff at Park Avenue after signing as an apprentice, and the following year he signed professional forms shortly after his 17th birthday.
His first team chances were limited and his only Football League appearance came in September 1963, at Newport County, when he deputised for the injured Jim Fryatt.
During 1963 he made another four appearances with the seniors in minor competitions. In May 1965, Sid was one of five players given a free transfer.
That summer he joined his home town club Ashington and appeared for them in North Regional League football.
Sid subsequently settled in Bradford with his wife and three children to whom we send our condolences.
